I think one reason why you’re getting downvoted is that: many people in this community are non-religious (80% per the most recent EA survey). Many non-religious people don’t appreciate being told “you should believe in god”; it’s basically a microaggression to them. The body of your post is innocuous to me but the title comes off as preachy IMO.
That’s pretty fair. I’m pretty certain that that’s the case to some extent, but I also think @Amber Dawn is correct that people just thought it was pascal’s mugging, when I think it is a tad more nuanced than that (see: my reply to Amber’s comment).
